pc8500 is no big thing on 4gb ddr2, i have that at 5-5-5-15 without trying! I'm sure I could hit 1100+ with some fiddling!

4gb @ 1200mhz 5-5-5-15 is impressive. I haven't seen any ddr2 sold over 1200mhz/anyone running ddr2 24/7 over 1200mhz - is this the limit of ddr2?

ddr3 doesn't do anything for me atm. It's nice it is getting faster with better latencys and cheaper. Let this trend continue and if those octocores are nice performers I'd be persuaded to grab one with ddr3.

not sure if you only mean 4gb kits but ive had my 2gb ballistix tracers from 800>1180 without much effort(granted the timings are a tiny bit slack) so ddr2 is still pretty decent,i dont see why 1200mhz would not be possible

and yea ddr3 needs to get cheaper,its not worth it atm when you can think ddr2 and how cheap it is now,ddr3 should follow soon enough
